Walking The Long Miles Home Chords by Richard Thompson

[C#] _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Or the last bus is gone
Or maybe I'm [D] wrong
It just doesn't exist _ _
And [G] the words that flew
Between me and you
I must [D] be crossed off your list _ _
So [C] I'm walking [D] along [G] my own
And _ [C] I [D] don't mind losing [G] you
_ [C] And in fact I [D] feel better [Em] each step of the way
In [C] the dark [D] I rehearse [Em] all I write is to say
[C] I'll be home, [D] I'll be sober
[Em] But break of [A] _ day
_ [C] Walking [D] along [G] my own
_ As [C] _ _ [D] _ _
[G] _ _ _ the sun surrounds
As I put my [D] crown
Between me and you
_ _ _ [G] And the hard times I sleep
Or maybe they're deep [D] in your level _
So _ [C] I'm walking [D] along [G] my own
_ [C] And I [D] don't mind [G] losing you
[C] I'm trapped in the moon
[D] Left for [Em] company each step of the way
[C] Got the rhythm [D] in my shoes
[Em] Keep the blues away
[C] When you ride [D] Shank's pony
[Em] It's so [A] hard to breathe
_ _ [C] Walking [D] along [G] my own
Oh, _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
[D] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
[D] _ _ [G] _ _ _ the party was grand
But I hadn't quite planned
[D] On staying so long
_ _ _ [G] And while you accuse me
They always confuse me
And [D] my friends had all gone
So _ _ [C] I'm walking [D] along my [G] own
_ _ [C] And I [D] don't mind losing [G] you
And [C] there's nobody [D] else
But the [Em] cop on the beach
[G] [C] He's snoring so [D] loud
That he [Em] don't hear my feet
I just [C] laugh to [D] myself
And [Em] move off down [A] the street _
_ _ _ [Em] _ [C] Walking [D] along [G]
my own
[Em] _ [C] I'm walking [D] along my [G] own
[Em] Oh, [C] I'm [D] walking along [G] my own _ _ _ _ _ _
